GenericGirlName posted:Hey so, this might be a dumb request but what if when you force touched the "..."

What do you do after marking-as-last-read other than immediately leave the thread? If swiping back into the thread were easier, would it change how you feel about closing the thread being the default follow-on action?

Right now there's only 4 actions on the post meatball menu. If we move to the list style there's probably ample room to add "Mark as read and exit thread" if we really think it's that necessary.

I suppose I assumed it existed that way for a reason

I just assumed (wrongly lol) that it would be something simple. I mean, it's really nice when apps do it. I've just had miserable experiences the last couple times I've tried is all. I'm up for trying again someday but yeah it's more involved than ticking a box. And it's that frustrating kind of thing where it seems to work ok 99% of the time, then the 100th time some weird transparent touch-eating view sits over the whole screen and the app feels like it's frozen.

For example, I'm down with a setting that toggles whether it's mark-as-last-read or mark-as-first-unread, but I'd still want the default to match the Forums proper.

If you scroll a quote so the “posted by” label is just out of the viewport but under the “back” button on the phone or the Parent Forum etc flyout thing, you can still interact with it. I keep trying to return to bookmarks and instead navigating to some random quote. Also earlier I hit Parent Forum on my iPad and it refreshed the forum list in such a way that the spinner face graphic was stretched to cover the entire forum list pane vertically on top of the forum list while remaining the original width. I wish I had gotten a screenshot, it was hilarious and I’m sure I’ll never manage to reproduce it. Sadly it was not spinning, if that information helps narrow that down. As soon as I pulled down slightly on the list it fixed itself.

pokeyman posted:It does, those look great! Hey I've output all these icons into this folder. Everything in that folder and subfolder is updated and will have the same naming as before so they should just swap out. There are some brand new icons too. I've separated 'report' and 'rap-sheet' into 2 icons. There's an updated 'copy-title' icon - I didn't make the original one of these so I don't know if the naming is correct. There's a 'cancel' icon for putting at the bottom of the steamed-ham menu. There's also a parent-forum icon if you want to try putting that in steamed-ham. Can you have the platinum icon display in the same grey as 'Joined...'? That block of text (Username / Joined) would also look better with a bit more padding to the left between the text and avatar. Like, the same amount as there is to the left of the avatar.

I'm seeing a bug lately that seems to be specific to the iPad version, in which certain threads (notably though possibly coincidentally all among the most recent threads I've bookmarked) seem to be getting stuck in the no-new-posts section of my bookmarks when sort unread bookmarks first is turned on, and also don't correctly show the unread post count (although they do correctly display the last poster). If I turn off sort unread bookmarks first, the threads will sort to the correct place in that order but still with the unread post count incorrect, so I guess somethings dodgy with the sort unread bookmarks code? Maybe? E: If someone posts in such a thread and I refresh the iPad bookmarks list with sort unread bookmarks first turned off, the post count will update and if I then then sort unread bookmarks first back on the thread will be sorted correctly. E:E: uh This is a new one. Fedule fucked around with this message at 10:39 on Sep 12, 2019 |

I suppose this was tested/discussed in beta and no longer in discussion, but the plat icon being a white circle with grenade in it is incredibly distracting in dark modes. The last one was fine because I mentally blocked it out to the degree that I initially came here to complain about this new feature I wanted off. The best sort of visual indicators are ones that do their job for people who want to know but aren’t standing out to grab the attention of people who aren’t looking for it. Edit: My brain will eventually adjust, I just don’t know why encircling the logo was necessary rather than working it into the theme Craptacular! fucked around with this message at 12:27 on Sep 12, 2019 |

It should really be about half the opacity and come after the username, not before it. It’s not like it went through rigorous testing or anything you can see in a few posts above yours they’re still working it out.

The Dave posted:It should really be about half the opacity and come after the username, not before it. Its not like it went through rigorous testing or anything you can see in a few posts above yours theyre still working it out. Yeah, this. Here are some mockups of how I see the plat icon working well. I've added some padding to the left of the username and shifted the plat icon to after username (this rule would also apply to mod stars etc.) We've been over this before too but the Joined and Post Date text could stand to be more subtle. It's unnecessary visual clutter for something that users rarely read. Last time someone mentioned there are iOS guidelines for text brightness, but the actual content is so much easier to parse this way I think it's worth ignoring that specific guideline, especially since the information isn't really important. The way I set it up in my photoshop mockup should be able to be applied easily in code: For light theme this text and the plat icon is #000000 black at 30% opacity. For dark theme this text and the plat icon is #FFFFFF white at 30% opacity. Also minor UI nitpick - the top left main back arrow is sitting a few pixels higher than the post icon on the top right. (My mockups correct that.)

Somewhat along those lines I'm not thrilled with the new expand/collapse icons for the forum list. Either one is fine on its own but that combination feels weird. I think it's that the traditional +/- makes expand the "heavier" icon but now the circled - takes that place over the uncircled v. Maybe just stick a circle around the v too?

I think it's that the traditional +/- makes expand the "heavier" icon but now the circled - takes that place over the uncircled v. Maybe just stick a circle around the v too? Yeah it's not perfect. The reason I changed it was because the minus - symbol was such low weight it didn't feel like a button. I made a flipped (up) arrow for collapse which is packaged with all the other new icons that'll be implemented at some point soon hopefully. Another thing that would help this forum view would be removing the division lines in expanded lists. It'd make it more clear what forum each subforum belongs to.

A ^ icon for collapsing subforums would look a lot better. The new one just adds visual clutter without any benefit. The indentation of the subforum name works just fine to show the hierarchy and everyone’s familiar with tree views Also I like the placement of the plat grenade icon but it was much cleaner without the circle backdrop. Could the app swap between black and white icons based on whether dark mode is turned on or not? Just my 2 cents - thanks for all the great work!

What about shortening the division lines so they're "indented" like the names are? I like the lines as they are and not having them in subforums would feel weird. Plus that'd get extra confusing for the handful of sub-sub-forums.
